U4 Bonding Vocab

Anion

• a solution that can conduct electricity.
• an element or polyatomic ion that has an overall positive charge.
• an element or polyatomic ion that has an overall negative charge.
• an electrostatic interaction that holds a cation and anion together.

Chemical bond

• the arrangement of electrons that creates a stable environment for multiple elements.
• an ion that has more than one element.
• the most simplified ratio of ions bonded together.
• a solution that has ions or charges.

Cation

• an element or polyatomic ion that has more electrons than protons.
• an element or polyatomic ion that has more neutrons than protons.
• an element or polyatomic ion that has an overall positive charge.
• an element or polyatomic ion that has an overall negative charge.

• Group 1A
• Atomic Radius

electron sea model

• electrons can move freely and do not “belong” to any one atom.
• electrons are held to only one atom.

how electrons are described in a metallic bond.

• Transferred to another atom
• Shared between two atoms
• Sea of electrons
• Shared unevenly among two atoms

the most simplified ratio of ions bonded together.

• Molecule
• Atom
• Moles
• Formula Unit

Which does NOT describe an Ionic bond

• a bond that happens between metals and nonmetals.
• an electrostatic interaction that holds a cation and anion together.
• a bond that occurs when the electronegativity difference is greater than 1.7
• shared electrons hold two element together in this type of bond.
